How To Make shrimp paninis with pesto mayo

    In a blender, mix together the mayonnaise and lemon juice, basil, garlic, and Worcestershire. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Set aside and chill until ready to use.
  • Step 2
    Pat shrimp with a paper towel until completely dry. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning.
  • Step 3
    Heat a large skillet over medium heat, and add butter and olive oil. When the butter melts, raise the heat to medium-high, and add shrimp all on one side. Cook the shrimp until pink and cooked through, about 5 minutes. Toss shrimp with 1 Tbsp. lemon juice.
  • Step 4
    Grill bread on a griddle pan in butter flavor cooking spray until lightly browned. Leave the side you will use for the inside a little bit soft so the bread is not too hard or crunchy.
